This modified create_fpc_deb.sh (from lazarus/tools/install) will handle
the environment variables OS_TARGET and CPU_TARGET and detect when a
cross compiler is being built if CPU_TARGET differs from `dpkg
--print-architecture`
e.g.
OS_TARGET=linux CPU_TARGET=powerpc ./create_fpc_deb.sh fpc
Additional patch to help building win32.
It forces CROSSINSTALL=1 for any OS_TARGET build even for the same CPU,
in order to avoid building a load of cruft not needed.
(If you don't specify the OS_TARGET then it builds everything properly.)
It also allows BINUTILSPREFIX to be specified in the
I have my project compiler options and build lazarus both set to

Although lazarus uses the powerpc lib dirs, it still uses ppc386 to

su -c cd /usr/share/lazarus/lcl/
